Encrypt Information In Images Without Distortion

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the practical-steganography dept.

Nomikos writes "C|Net reports: Researchers have created a new way to encrypt information in a digital image and extract it later without any distortion or loss of information. A team of scientists from Xerox and the University of Rochester said that the technique, called reversible data hiding, could be used in situations that require proof that an image has not been altered."

    Wow, lossless data encryption!! I'm impressed!

    Rumor has it they're going to call it "ROT13".

    Sheesh...Is it really that hard to author a post that doesn't insult the intelligence of 80% of your readers?

    Cheers,
